AN AMERICAN IDOL COUNTRY CONNECTION

Published: Apr 04, 2005

The original American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson, has an idol of her own-country superstar Reba McEntire. Kelly's been hanging with Reba in Las Vegas rehearsing the song "Does He Love You," which will be part of the "American Idol Reunion Special" on Fox TV this fall. The duet came together after Kelly was quoted on TV and in magazines saying that Reba is her idol. Country fans will remember that Reba's original duet partner on the song was Linda Davis. Reba and Linda took the song to No. 1 in 1991.
